Take Control of your Super Fund
When the markets turn as volatile and confusing as they have
over the past few months, even the most patient investors may come to question
the wisdom of their super and the investment plan they’ve been following.
At GFP, we’ve seen a lot of difficult markets come and go
and we can certainly empathize with people who find the current environment
troublesome and disturbing.
Did you know Self-managed super funds have become a popular
way for Australians to build their retirement savings? In fact they’re now the
fastest growing part of the superannuation market, with more than one million
of us being members of an SMSF.
The popularity of SMSFs can largely be attributed to the
fact that more and more people are deciding they want to have greater control
over their investments.
People want the flexibility to make their own decisions
about what to invest in, and the ability to change direction quickly, if
needed.
Technology is another factor that has contributed to the
growth in self-managed super funds. For example, some SMSFs give fund members
instant access to the performance of their investments on mobile devices,
anywhere and anytime.
If you think a self – managed super fund could be right for
you, or if you’re simply interested in understanding a bit more about them you
should get in touch with us.
A GFP adviser will talk to you about your personal financial
situation and your future goals and will help you decide whether an SMSF is
suitable for you. This will involve a discussion about the benefits and
challenges of running your own super fund, including set-up and operating costs
and ways to make it easier than you might think.
